Nanki-Poo RB 6-27-08

Nanki-Poo is gone. I still can't believe it. He came into my life on November 10, 2004. I took him to the vet this afternoon. His sores were healing, and I was hoping I could soon let him go outdoors. I noticed he was breathing hard when I took him out of the carrier at the vet's. So did the vet's assistant. He was very anemic and had fluid in his chest. She gave him oxygen, but said he'd need a transfusion, to have the fluid aspirated, and various other things, and it probably wouldn't save him anyway. She said his heart was greatly enlarged, and he was in heart failure. It tore me apart, but I made the only decision possible. The poor little guy went through so much, but at least he was loved for the last 3 ½ years of his life. I can't write any more now. Purrs for your broken heart. Nanki-Poo isn't having trouble breathing and his heart is not bothering him. He is free from fear and from pain and you may yet see him again. He will miss you while he waits but he has plenty of jolly company. -- Will in New Haven |

I'm so very, very sorry to hear that Nanki-Poo has gone to the Bridge, just when it seemed like he was turning the corner. Life is terribly unfair. But, at least he had the time with you. But for that, who knows what his life would have been like. Purrs are on the way for Nanki-Poo, and for your broken heart. When it gets dark, I will light a candle for Nanki-Poo, in my special candle holder in the shape of a sleeping cat. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^..^ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie. Every day is a treasure with Kenzie; I try to treat them that way. There will only be so many, and then there will never, ever, be any more.

I'm sure you made the kindest choice for poor Nanki-Poo, as hard as it was for you to let him go. Kudos to you for having the courage to do the right, difficult thing, and sympathetic hugs for your sad loss. We've all been there, we know the sadness, and we're here with you now. Melissa *** Thank you, Melissa. Joy |

I think many of us were "with you" as you went through the last months with Nanki. He clearly left feeling loved and that has to count for so much. Andy Thank you, Andy. Joy |
